Double-diffusive convection with verical temperature and concentration gradients in thermally stratified fluids has been investigated experimentally using an electrochemical technique. Cupric sulfuric-sulffuric acid solution confined between two horizontal copper electrodes was used. The change of thermal and solutal buoyance has no influence on the range of voltage for the limiting current. Due to Soret effect, the onset time of natural convection is delayed as the stabilizing thermal buoyancy decreases. Also it is found that the shrinkage of the unstabilizing solutal buoyancy makes the onset of natural convection retard. Multi-layered convective phenomena do not appear because cupric sulfate-sulfuric acid solution is thermally stratified, and heat diffuses faster than cupric sulfate solfate solution.

In this research, double-layered photoconductor consist of the carrier generation layer(CGL) of ${\varepsilon}$ type copper phthalocyanine thin film by an aqueous coating method and the carrier transport layer(CGL) of polyvinyl carbazol(PVK) by spin coating. We inverstigated effect of the surfactant solution and cathod electrolysis to the crystal type of ${\varepsilon}$-CuPc in CGL with TEM, SEM and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy and studied the mechanism of an aqueous coating for the preparation of CGL. The effect of the washing of CGL about the electrophotographic characteristics of the ${\varepsilon}$-CUPC/PVK double-layered photoconductors is studied also.

Electroosmotic tests were performed on saturated marine clay specimens contaminated with lead to investigate the efficiency of the electrokinetic technique for removal of heavy metals from the cohesive soils. For this purpose, testing program included variable conditions such as the concentration of lead (500, 5, 000, 50, 000mg/kg), the level of electrical current (10, 50, 100 mA), operating duration (5, 15, 30days), and the application of three dirtferent chemicals for enhancement in efficiency. The pH of inflow and outflow, electroosmotic flow and electrical conductivity during the test, and the pH and the concentration of lead across the specimen after the test are presented. Test results came to the conclusion that the electrokinetic technique was very effective to remove heavy metals such as lead from the contaminated cohesive soil. Adding ecetic acid at the cathod to dissolve the procipitates of lead hydroxide as found to be effective for the enhancement of the efficiency in remediation.

현재 사용하고 있는 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) Backlight용 램프는 주로 CCFL(Cold Cathod Fluorescent Lamp)과 EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp)이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이 램프는 수은을 사용하여 RoHS(the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment)규제가 점점 강화되면서 사용이 제한되고 있으며, 이에 따라 수은을 사용하지 않는 램프의 제작이 불가피해지고 있다. 또한 LCD TV는 CRT와 PDP와는 다른 LCD만의 Hold-type 특성과 LC(Liquid Crystal)의 응답속도로 인하여 Motion Blur현상이 나타나는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 RoHS 규제를 만족시키는 무수은 면광원 램프를 구동하기 위한 인버터를 제안한다. 제안한 인버터는 포워드 방식을 사용하여 반도체 소자 및 자기 소자의 수를 줄여서 구동회로가 간단하다. 또한 면광원 램프를 세로방향으로 6블록으로 나누어 스캔구동을 하여 Motion Blur현상을 저감 시켰다. 끝으로 실험을 통하여 제안한 인버터의 유용성을 입증하였다.

Synthesis of the spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ by emulsion method was investigated. $LiOH.H_2O \;and \;Mn(NO_3)_2.6H_2O$ were used as starting materials to prepare mixed aqueous solution (0.5 mol/$\ell$ for the $LiMn_2O_4$). Kerosene, paraffin oil and span 80 were used for organic phase. The aqueous solutioin and organic phase were mixed in the ratio of 2:1 and emulsified at the speed of 4000 rpm for 5 min. The prepared emulsions were dropped into the petroleum heated at $170^{\circ}C$ to evaporate water in the silicon oil bath, dried at $120^{\circ}C$ in the oven the remove petroleum and calcined at temperature ranges from 600 to $900^{\circ}C$ for 48 hrs. The characteristics of powders were investigated by XRD, SEM, BET and electrochemical properties of synthesized cathode materials were measured with Galvanostatic system. $Li_{1.05}Mn_2O_4$ calcined at $800^{\circ}C$ for 48 hrs showed initial discharge capacity of 125.9mAH/g.

LCD를 TV 향으로 적용하기 위해서는 몇 가지 해결해야만 하는 문제가 있으며, 이중 하나가 동화상 재생시에 발생하는 잔상현상의 해결이다. LCD는 기존의 CRT와 같은 불연속 자발광 소자가 아니라, 연속수광소자로서, 잔상현상이 치명적인 약점으로 나타난다. 기종의 Monitor 대응품에서는 실제로 Monitor를 통해서 사용자가 관찰하는 이미지 정보가 정지화상 중심으로 구성되어 있기 때문에 문제가 되지 않았으나, TV의 경우 연속적인 동화상만을 취급하고 있어, 잔상현상의 해결 없이는 TV 향 제품에 적용할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 잔상현상을 근본적으로 없애기 위해서 LCD를 CRT와 같이 불연속적의 분절적 이미지로 구동하는 방법을 실험하였으며, VIDEO 입력 신호에 대해서 16.7msec의 1Frame을 기준으로 점등 구간과 비점등 구간을 6:4로 나누어 BL(Back Light)을 점멸하는 방법을 구현하였다. 또한 종래의 CCFL(cold Cathod Flourescent Lamp)로는 점멸 속도에 대한 대응이 불가하므로, 이를 해결하기 위해서 광원의 형광체에 대해서 잔광시간특성의 개선도 동시에 실시하였다. 실험 결과 육안 및 사진촬영에서 잔상없는 화면을 얻을 수 있었으며, 응답파형 측정 결과 CRT 측정시와 마찬가지로 분절적인 이미지의 생성이 가능한 것을 알 수 있었다.

Electrical compound action potential (ECAP) can be recorded on cochlear implant. This study will investigate stimulation and recording to enhance the efficacy of ECAP. 34 articles was used. We analyzed pulse and stimulating condition, artifact suppression, recording condition. The cathod-leading biphasic pulse was used with as short as possible pulse width and inter phase gap for the efficacy of neural firing, stable threshold and preventing neural degeneration. Around C-level was stimulated to apical, middle and basal turn of cochlea. Artifact was eliminated by forward-masking, template-subtraction technique. For clearer waveform, we need to change distance between stimulating and recording electrode, the gain of amplification, number of average.

In this paper, the electron swarm parameters in the 0.5% and 0.2% SF\ulcorner+Ar mixtures are measured by time of flight method over the E/N(Td) range from 30 to 300(Td). The measurements have been carried out by the double shutter drift tube with variable drift distance from the cathod. A two-term approximation of the boltzmann equation analysis and Monte Carlo simulation have been also used to study electron transport coefficients. We have calculated W, $ND_L,\;ND_T,\;\alpha,\;\eta,\;\alpha-\eta$, and the limiting breakdown electric field to gas mixtures ratio in pure $SF_6$+Ar mixtures. The electron energy distribution function has been analysed in $SF_6$+Ar mixtures at E/N : 200(Td) for a case of the equilibrium region in the mean electron energy. The measured results and the calculated results have been compared each other.

최근 LCD제품은 고유한 특장인 경박단소가 요구되면서, 기존의 Back Light Unit(BLU) 로는 대응할 수 없는 사양으로 진화되고 있다. 기존과 동일한 설계개념으로 접근시에 시장에서 요구되는 중량, 두께, 휘도의 사양을 만족시킬 수 없으며, BLU의 주요광원인 CCFL(Cold Cathod Fluorescent Lamp)의 휘도 개선 또 한 한계에 다다르고 있다. 따라서 앞으로의 BLU 의 고성능화는 최적화, 고효율화로의 개발 전개가 예상되며, LCD의 고해상도에 따른 투과율 저하를 보상하기 위한 고품질 BLU의 개발이 시급한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 BLU의 고효율화, 고품질화를 달성하기 위한 고성능 도광판 개발과 관련하여, 실물 제작에 앞서 광학시뮬레이션을 통한 이론적 접근을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 상측에서 정각 $90^{\circ}$ 에 높이 $50{\mu}m$ 하측에서 정각 $80^{\circ}$ 높이 $28{\mu}m$일때 평균조도가 71.52W/m^2 구현됨을 알 수 있다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 통상의 인쇄 방식 도광판에 비해서 약 20% 정도의 휘도향상이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 차후 본 결과를 바탕으로 한 실물 제작을 통해 설계 시뮬레이션 결과와의 비교를 통해서 정확한 예측이 가능한 시스템을 구현함을 목적으로 하였다.

Porous metals are called as a new material of 21th century because they show not only extremely low density, but also novel physical, thermal, mechanical, electrical, and acoustic properties. Since the late in the 1990's, considerable progress has been made in the production technologies of many kinds of porous metals such as aluminum, titanium, nickel, copper, stainless steel, etc. The commercial applications of porous metals have been increased in the field of light weight structures, sound absorption, mechanical damping, bio-materials, thermal management for heat exchanger and heat sink. Especially, the porous metals are promising in automotive applications for light-weighting body sheets and various structural components due to the good relation between weight and stiffness. This paper reviews the recent progress of production techniques using molten metal bubbling, metal foaming, gas expansion, hollow sphere structure, unidirectional solidification, etc, which have been commercialized or under developing, and finally introduces several case studies on the potential applications of porous metals in the area of heat sink, automotive pannel, cathod for Ni-MH battery, golf putter and medical implant.
